Closed Revoke guidance to Chief Constables following Israel-Hamas conflict

Closed on

We demand the Home Office revokes the guidance in the 'Letter to Chief Constables in England and Wales following the Israel-Hamas conflict' dated 10.10.23, in particular regarding whether waving Palestinian flags and chanting "Palestine will be free" indicate support for Hamas.

We reject the notion that supporting Palestinian freedom equates to supporting terrorism. We do not believe that the British government, which has colonised so many indigenous peoples throughout history, should determine the legitimacy of Palestinians' right to self-determination, and their right to resist the occupation of what many consider to be their land, by Israel and its settlers.
